Wacko of the Week -- 08/04/07

Mattel Corporation and FISHER PRICE TOYS
CLICK




"Bum Dora is so bum ... she might poison ya!"

========
This company decided they should have their children's toys made in China. This has caused them trouble. But, when you're dedicated, as American businesses are, to making maximum profit, moving your operations to China is a wise idea. Matell claims to be: "...recognized as one of the 100 Most Trustworthy U.S. Companies by Forbes Magazine and is ranked among the 100 Best Corporate Citizens by CRO Magazine." CLICK

Well, maybe that ranking ought to be reconsidered! Because, it seems, some of their toys have toxic paint on them, and every kid on earth will stick a toy in his mouth.

Now they have to recall a million toys from the market. Hey Fisher Price, go chew on that one.
